6 1. Introduction WinPAC-5000 Series is the new generation PAC (Programmable Automation Controller). It is equipped with a PXA270 CPU (520 MHz) running a Windows CE.NET 5.0 operating system, various connectivity (VGA, USB, Ethernet, RS-232/485) and I/O expansion bus. The WinPAC-5000 series has many advantages, including hard real-time capability, small core size, and fast boot speed, interrupt handling at a deeper level, achievable deterministic control and low cost. Using Windows CE.NET 5.0 gives it the ability to run PC-based control software such as Visual Basic.NET, Visual C#, Embedded Visual C++, SCADA software, SoftPLC. It gives users all of the best features of both traditional PLCs and Windows capable PCs. For hardware expansion, it also supports an I/O expansion bus. The I/O expansion bus can be used to implement various I/O functions such as D/I, D/O, A/D, D/A, Timer/Counter, UART, and other I/O functions. Nearly all kinds of I/O functions can be implemented by this bus. But the bus can support only one board. There are more than 10 boards available for WinPAC-5000 series which users can choose one of them to expand hardware features. WinPAC-5000 Series User Manual, Version Page: 6

7 1.1. WinPAC-5000 Family The WinPAC-5000 family is divided into two main types according to Audio port. WP-5141 (without Audio port) WP-5141-OD (with Audio port) WP-5151 (without Audio port) WP-5151-OD (with Audio port) WinPAC-5000 Naming Convention As you examine this manual, you ll notice there are many different models available. Sometimes it is difficult to remember the specifications for any given model. However, if you take a few minutes to understand the module naming conventions, it may save you some time and confusion. The figure below shows how the module naming conventions work for each WinPAC-5000 model. WinPAC-5000 Series User Manual, Version Page: 7
